<span>Extreme temperature and bedrocks
Tundra and desert both have shallow soil profiles because of the extreme temperatures and the bedrocks it has. In the case of tundra, it has extreme cold temperature and the soil were covered in ice in long periods of time. Because of this, the plants were unable to get water from the bedrocks resulting in plants dying. In the desert, however, it has extreme hot temperature making the plants unable to survuve due to lack of water in the environment and in the bedrocks. The plants that can only survive in this temperature are the plants that has the ability to store water in their system.</span>
Answer:
This question lacks options, the complete question is: What do you think would have the greatest effect on the body—a harmful mutation in a pluripotent embryonic stem cell, or a harmful mutation in an adult multipotent stem cell?The correct answer is a harmful mutation in a pluripotent embryonic stem cell.
Explanation:
Pluripotent Stem Cells can self-renew and differentiate into any of the three germ layers, which are: the ectoderm, the endoderm and the mesoderm. These three germ layers subsequently differentiate to form all the tissues and organs within a human being. If during embryonic development, genetic mutations - alterations in genes - occur in the embryonic stem cell, they pass to daughter cells as a consequence of cell division, and an individual is generated whose cells differ at the genetic level. Multipotent stem cells are organospecific cells, that is, they can give rise to any type of cells but from a specific organ (a lung, a kidney or the brain). Their differentiation ends the moment they specialize and become a cell with a specific function within a specific tissue or organ. If there were a mutation in these cells, it would damage a specific designed tissue or organ.
